Y Subject of the Emperor of Germany, andrefi siding at Chicago, in .thecoun'tyof CookfandV ringAlO. `Rig-idly secured at its upper end to said ring is the .collector stocking 11 The main vobjectsoftliis invention arel to' which, as shown, is constructed of canvas or other flexible material and isv in the shape of an inverted cone. Supported near the bottom of said frame are two cross beams 12,

and vrigidly but removably `secured thereon fis. the clamping ring 18, having a groove 14 in its Ainner face inwhich is seated the low'erl retaining ring 15 of said stocking. Supported on said cross beams 12 and extending downwardly and laterallyfroin the bottom ofV thestocking is the discharge spout- 16,.

which is provided with a gate 17 therein. Said gate is pivoted at itsupper end near the top of the spout and adjacent the upper 'inclined wall thereof, and vits lower .eiidd norinally-.glies against the bottom inclilied'fwll ofthe spout and adjacent the mouth o f the apex of said cone is ja. bearing 20', and a bearvinet-2l is supported in` the head 5 in alineiiit' with. the bearing 20.

A shaft 28 is'journaled in bearings 29 on` l the :trame and is provided With a segment the section relative to the pipe.

shaped cam 3 0 thereon adapted during part ot' its revolution to revolve against acontact bloclr-ll Aon said head. The shape of said ca m is such tliat.ivhen it contacts Withsaid block it suddenly throws the receiver down-v wardly and Whenit leaves the .block it permits the receiverto suddenly return to' nor-` mal position, thereby shaking or vibrating the stocking.' v.

An inlet pipe132 leads from the machine from which the'dustt is to be taken and its end adjacentthe collector is supported in the lran'ie member 33, adjacent'to thepipe section 3a carried on and openinginto the upper portion oit the receiver opposite the fan. A lexible sleeve .connects 'said 'pipe 32 andsection Bil and `permits movement of Opening from said receiver at a point beneath the lcone 19 is a'n air outlet or return pipe sec tioii 36r which is connected in said member 33 by means of 'alexible sleeve 37. The return .pipe section 3G is provided with ali-open'- 30- ingnSS in one side thereof which is controlled by agate 39, slidably mounted in' guides 40 on said section. A return pipe, not shown,

may be connected. with said sleeve 37 and lead back to the source of air supply, and by y apart causes it to bind in its scat and supportitselt' in adjusted position.

In the head 5 is a vent aperture controlled by a pivoted cover 42. The purpose of the aperture lis to `permit the entrancer of cold air into` the receiver if the air therein 1s overheated as it comes 'from the machine.

The operation of the construction shown is as follows:-The inlet pipe 32 is connected VWith the machine from which the dust is to "'enterethe: receiver the fan 22 is caused to rotate and-fits'wliirl'ing motion acts to throw be gathered and the dustfis forced from the macl'iinefdthrough said pipe, into the receiver by'fnieanso'f/an air blast supplied by any suitable *blowen L'As the dust and Wind the dust tovvard the Wall of the receiver. j. The dust ,thnalls downwardly beneath the cone intothel stocking l1. The shaft 28 is rotated "bylmeans of the vbelt pulley/i3, and j as-'the/ f cam 30 strikes and leaves the contact block 3l the receiver is vibrated and imparts its vibratory motion to the stocking, causing the -tion of it will be drawn back through the dust to'be. shaken dovvn to the bottom of the stocking and into the spout. The swinging v gate 17 is heavy enough to liolda c'onsider vable quantity of dust in the spoutvand When a suiiicient quantity has been collected the gate. is automatically raised, by`the Weight' of the dust and permits the dust tov escape into any. suitable receptacle. v By means of the valve 41 a greater or less amount of the air maybe returned 'to the machine from the receiver. The amount will depend upon. the ineness of the dust being collected. /Vhere the dustl is veryhine a porreturn pipe, but when coarse .it will, allbe separated out and the gate 39 may-then be lopened to permit the air to escape into the room. lVhile but one specific embodiment of this invention is herein shown it will be under-j stood that many details of the construction shown. may -be varied or omitted without do: parting fromA the spirit of this inveiition..
